ITALIA/16/MENDOZZA/ANNIHILATION TIME/PLAYLISTS/TOP 10

First off, RIP Lux Interior of The Cramps. He was an incredible entertainer and he will be missed dearly.

Well, I’m not going to SXSW nor the Maryland Death Fest after all. Nope, I’ll be going to ITALY FOR A MONTH instead! WHOO HOO!! I’m going to be staying with some friends of mine in Milano and do 2-3 days trips here and there. All I wanna do is have a “real” vacation. I’ll be doing slight sightseeing here and there but, I wanna chill with my friends and chill by the Mediterranean and other bodies of water (Lake Como). I’m starting to do my itinerary and hope to have everything down right before I leave (March 27th to April 27th). More to come……

Until then, I’ll still be going out and see bands. Speaking of that, this Friday, February 6th at Thee Parkside here in San Francisco will probably be one of “thee best” shows of 2009. I’m talking about the return of 16! 16 is a L.A. sludge/hardcore/metal band that formed back in the early 90’s. They have tons of records out there and took a break for a while. Now, they have a new album on Relapse Records, Bridges To Burn and they are back! Also on the bill are some friends of mine Canada, MENDOZZA! Come early because they play first and you will not want too miss them at all. Oh yeah, two other bands on the bill as well, Floating Goat and Giant Squid.

Saturday is a chill day for me and then on Sunday the 8th again at Thee Parkside is the return of ANNIHILATION TIME! I love how these kids take Hardcore and Punk and spin it somehow to fuckin ROCK and that’s what I’m looking forward to seeing AT. It’s an early show (doors at 4pm) so you’ll be able to make it back home in time for your mommy’s soup. HAHAHA!!! Anyway, come on out, its all ages and who know when Annihilation Time will play again. See you there!

Don’t forget I’m at PIRATE CAT RADIO here in the Mission District of San Francisco. This year, i'm going to try to get more interviews and bands to play live in the cafe. Oh yeah, the station is also a cafe. While you're sipping on your Italian soda, coffee, hot tea, enjoying FREE internet or whatever, you can see me, the interviewers, the interviewees, the bands and the other DJ's doing what we do best... and that's spinning records and talking shit. Woooooo!!!! My show is still every Tuesday 4to6PM (PST). We broadcast at 87.9FM in San Francisco, Los Angeles and 104.8 in Berlin, Germany. We also stream online 24/7 at WWW.PIRATECATRADIO.COM. You can even listen to six weeks worth of my podcasts at http://www.piratecatradio.com/playlist.php?dj=NakedRob. Let me know if you have bands coming through and I'll see about putting them on.

And of course, THE THRASH ATTACK is still every Thursday 4to7PM (PST) at KSCU 103.3FM in the South Bay or streaming online at WWW.KSCU.ORG. I still spin the BEST in: METAL, HARDCORE, THRASH, GRIND, DEATH, STONER, DOOM, SLUDGE, PUNK, ROCKNROLL, GARAGE, NOISE ROCK, POST-WHATEVER, COUNTRY, INDUSTRIAL, ELECTRONIC and whatever else i want. As of now, I don't have any podcasts but, I'm learning to record my show on Mac and hopefully I'll have some soon.

Thanks everybody for everything. Keep sending me new music and keep spreading the word about KSCU, PCR and me, Naked Rob to your friends, family, promoters, bookers and the rest of the world. Take care, have a good weekend and stay straight. CHEERS!
